Question

3) If an electrical appliance has 150.0 V applied causing a current of 2.34 amps, what is the

Answer 1

The resistance of the appliance is 64.1 Ω.

Explanation:

As per the Ohm's law, which states that the electric current is in direct proportion to the voltage and is in inverse proportion to the resistance. It is given by the expression as,

V = IR

Where V is the voltage (V) = 150.0 V

I is the current (amps) = 2.34 amps

R is the resistance (ohm) or Ω = ?

Now we have to rearrange the equation to get the resistance as,

$R = \frac{V}{I}$

Now we have to plug in the values as,

$R = \frac{150}{2.34}$

   = 64.1 Ω

So the resistance of the appliance is 64.1 Ω.
